Subject: Bee Man of Orn
Excellent reading of these strange, medieval-sounding tales.

Initially, I was unsure if these odd stories would hold my attention -- they did, equally due to the author's style and the reader's skill. Her voice is pure and her enunciation perfect, and has a lovely tone. Highly recommended.

Thank you Gryphon! More please.

this is a wonderful reading; very clear and articulate.

if you can find it, there is also the excellent reading of Frank Stockton's "the lady or the tiger/the discourager of hesitancy" read by Toyah with musical accompaniment by Robert Fripp ( guitarist for King Crimson) on EG records.
